​Tyler Smith

I am an active performer and educator
who seeks to provide a unique, fun, and
professional experience to my audiences.
A native of Lake in the Hills, IL, I attended
Northern Illinois University where I received my
bachelor's degree in Steel Pan and Music Education,
studying under steel pan legends Liam Teague and Cliff Alexis.
I have performed locally and internationally including venues in the Chicagoland Area, Rhode Island, Nebraska, Trinidad and Tobago, Ireland, The Netherlands, and Key West, Florida.
 
I have performed in many venues throughout Key West in collaboration with local musicians as well as providing wedding ceremony and cocktail hour music. I have moved back to Northern Illinois after a great couple of years living and working in the Keys as a Music Educator, Steel Band Director, and active freelance performer.
